Linus Torvalds 255442c938 Documentation updates for 4.16. New stuff includes refcount_t
documentation, errseq documentation, kernel-doc support for nested
 structure definitions, the removal of lots of crufty kernel-doc support for
 unused formats, SPDX tag documentation, the beginnings of a manual for
 subsystem maintainers, and lots of fixes and updates.
 
 As usual, some of the changesets reach outside of Documentation/ to effect
 kerneldoc comment fixes.  It also adds the new LICENSES directory, of which
 Thomas promises I do not need to be the maintainer.
